Little Wok - Wicker Park Reviews

First time at Little Wok. Had dinner with friends. We ordered both vegetarian and their regular egg rolls and shrimp and vegetable tempura. Very good. I ordered the Beef Chow Fun with gravy while my friends had Ramen noodle soup with pork belly and Beef Fried Rice. My Chow Fun was the best in over 25 years. Beef was silky and so tender. Reminded me of what I used to order on Chinatown when I worked.
I ordered a Kentucky Mule for a cocktail. A little lean on the amount of alcohol content.
But, overall. I will be going back.

This is my almost daily lunch spot. I work on Division and in my opinion it's the best spot within walking distance for many reasons. Food is always fresh, the amount of choices is incredible, and the staff is genuine and kind. Nina is usually my server and she's the friendliest. It's cool to be able to walk in and know im gonna be taken care of! I love the orange chicken and black pepper chicken. 10/10

DO NOT EAT HERE!!!
The service was HORRIBLE. We went for dinner and didn’t even get past being seated. The restaurant was at half capacity, but the servers were walking around like zombies. These are a group of people who definitely don’t enjoy their work. The atmosphere/vibe SUCKED. After being seated for 15 minutes and not being acknowledged by ANYONE, we finally asked about our server, and they acted as if we were aliens (maybe it is because we are black, never mind). Needless to say, we left.
Don’t waste your time here. There are so many other restaurants like this with better service and food.

I had a wonderful time at Little Wok! My friend and I came to eat and it was very understandably busy as it was a holiday but the hostesses were very welcoming and let us know ahead of time that there would be some delays. Our server had wonderful recommendations, the ambiance was lovely with beautiful decor and great music. Drinks were tasty, notably the pineapple margarita and lychee martini. We saw a couple people yelling loudly at some poor hostesses who had been working very hard all night (probably nothing he same people who left two bad reviews before me). What does yelling at restaurant workers do for you? Does one need an ego boost that bad? Restaurants are still understaffed and just because tables are open does not mean they are able to accommodate. It seems to me that they care about the quality of their service more than the quantity. We will be back for more!

I have been here two times now, and I plan on going back. The inside decor is just beautiful and such a great place for a date, family, friends, etc. just think, versatile modern. The food can be amazing or disappointing depending. From my experience, their breaded chicken is not good. Very dry. My boyfriend felt the same. Now as for their pad see eu omggggg PHENOMENAL. I dream about that dish. I mean it was so good I had to sit there and relish in the moment lol. Their eggrolls are next level, and their hot and sour soup is the best I’ve ever had. Because of all those other positives, I still give this place five stars! The service has been about average but again the food has persuaded me to overlook some things. Always very friendly. Must go!

I will put this 2 start for their interior. Inside it looks really nice, and you expect food with the same quality. But unfortunately
We ordered 5 different plates
Just crab Rangoon was fine and tasty.
No soy sauce in Chinese restaurant. You have to ask for this I believe how I did.
Tom yum was awful. Spicy water with mushrooms, not even tasty.
We didn’t even eat more than 1 spoon.
After we ordered 2 different noodle soup
(On the photo shrimp noodle soup)
In their menu they don’t have mushrooms on recipe, I can’t eat mushrooms. But unfortunately no one told me, even menu.
Noodle was uncooked (if you visited a lot of Chinese places you will understand me clearly)
And noodle was like from dollar store.
From these 5 dishes we enjoyed only crab Rangoon.
We thought we will come back for sure, but after food I won’t even recommend to my friend.
Better to spend 10 more minutes and go to China town

One of the best new restaurants in the neighborhood. Go eat there! Seriously! Stylish, comfortable decor, friendly service, and delicious food. Highly recommend the Walnut Shrimp and Chow Fun with Gravy. We will definitely return to try more of their menu.

A new pan Asian cuisine sit down restaurant with full bar in the wicker park area on division. Prices are very competitive yet you get a high end ambiance. Plenty of street parking around the area as well as other attractions like Elitea nearby

Extremely fragrant and tastes just as good. Ordered dumplings and the Fatty Beef Vegetables. Dumplings were large and juicy while the Beef paried well with the choice of mushrooms and veggies.

Decor and ambience has a nice vibe. Fresh sushi and potstickers are delis. Service is decent and prices are reasonable. Background music fits.
